Here’s an adorable video that follows Muharrem, a deaf man from Istanbul. One fine morning, Muharrem gets a nice surprise as he sees that his neighborhood has learnt sign language and communication is much easier now. That’s a sweet heartwarming story, with tons of empathy pouring through.

Chinese photographer Zhang Bojun has a nice collection of plaid designs in his portfolio. These “designs” are digital manipulations created from overhead images from the vast sea of humans that are Beijing’s streets.

These images take the form of interlocking designs that are usually seen in plaid fabric.

It’s always good to know what’s cool, and what’s not. The easiest way to get around to that, is by seeing a graph. Well now, graphs about the coolness of several things are not so very easily available, but the persevering find a way. Or, you could just rely on these humorous graphs by RC Jones. The website Coolness Graphed has a series of bar charts dedicated to defining what’s cool, and what’s not. A selection of these bar charts has also become a book, now available on Amazon.

Skulls, as we have found, make excellent seating spaces. All you need to do is find one that will comfortable hold your arse, and you could be on your way to doing so many great things, the least of which would be sitting on a giant fake skull.
